CHINCH-BU

When cholera is at hand, the subject is
interesting; so with chinch- bugs.
Wilson Keys, of Rice county, and Mar
tin Mohler, Of Osborne county, have
digested the chinch-bug question until,
IN the opinion of the Kansas Farmer, they
are entitled to be considered authorities
on these pests. Mr.. Keys says chinch-
bugs will not bother much where old
weeds, old corn-stalks and other refuse
matter are kept destroyed. He illustrates
by contrasting the cases of two men who
have farms adjoining. One of these
farmers is of the slip-shod breed, and
chinch-bugs are thick on his place. The
other keeps his place clean, and is not
bothered by chinch-bugs.

How 1t Is Done,

Wichita's boom is said to be due
largely to the fact that the people went
to work in the right way by paying the
local papers to advertise it. The Beacon

rates for booming the town, and the city
buys up large number OF each issue for
free distribution Western Kansas

Fort Scott did the same thing. The
board of trade of that city pays the Moni-
tor $500 q month and agreed to keep it
up for year. Newspapers that receive
this sort of treatment at home can afford
to boom things. But our city govern

A SHORT SERMON.

In reaching the people in general, the
press possesses an advantage over the pull
pit. There are fellows who are going
toward hell on keen run. These same
fellows are apt to evade attending church.
Not so their treatment of the press.
They rather expect it to give them the
compliment" of a personal mention.
OF course, they want to see this.
Now a few words to this hel-bound
class: You get drunk. You get drunk
not only once, but twice and thrice, and so
on, vowing that there is in the possibility
of pleasant feeling something better than
you have yet experienced. While at this
drunken revelry, you are needless of the
inextinguishable wounds which you are
planting in the hearts of your parents;
needless of the poisonous action Of the
alcohol upon your physical system; heed
less of the Punishment of intellect
which takes place; needless of the effect
of your unnatural action upon society and
the state.
The degree of your heedlessness, per-
NIT us to assert, marks, for the time be-
ing, the exact extent of your insanity.
Whether, as measure of safety to society
and the state, you ought to be placed,
during your period Of insanity, in a local
workhouse or in an insane asylum, de-
nopds ,,non circumstances There ia a
plain trend of enlightened public senti-
ment in favor of considering drunkenness
a form of insanity. The sentiment is based
upon scientific evidence. It is based
upon the knowledge that a person who
absorbs the notion that the free use of a
poisonous liquid can add permanently to
his enjoyment is, if the use Of the para
doxical expression be allowed, guilty of
reasoning irrationally,
The prohibition legislation in Kansas
is among the events which have made it
an honor to live in this state. Now,
young man, if you persist in drinking
yourself insane, you emblazon upon your
forehead the inscription, II am not good
enough to deserve residence in Kansas
What are you going to do about it? If
you execute an immediate about face, by
letting reason take the place of debauch-
cry, you are safe. If you do not, the
fault and the responsibility are clearly
your own.

MINDS OF THEIR OWN.

General Sherman has expressed him
self in favor of the Grand Army giving
President Cleveland friendly reception
at the national encampment in st. Louis
The general may, or may not, be inhu.
enced by the fact that he is virtually
under the command of the president
Although retired from active service, he
draws his pay from the government, and
is not in a position which would permit
him to speak otherwise than respectfully
OF his chief. In our judgment, bis silence
at this juncture would have been gold.
But that was his business, not ours. The
general says that the president not being
a Grand Army member, can not partici-
pate in the secret work of the order.
The idea with the general seems to be
that the G. A. r. boys should extend to
Cleveland cordial welcome everywhere
else. We think differently. He has not
been their friend in war or peace. The
time Of the old soldiers at this encamp-
ment should be devoted to their fellow
ship with one another, instead of with Mr..
Cleveland or any other politician of what
ever party. This is undoubtedly the
view which has impelled the Grand Army
posts at Topeka and Abilene to decide
not to attend the encampment, unless
Cleveland's appearance there is cancelled.
The same view has doubtless inspired the
old soldiers Of Iowa to declare their In
tention to remain at home, unless Cleve-
land remains away from st. Louis. The
same sentiment peryades the old soldiers
in other sections Of the country.
